Inside Fontainebleau

Paris from the Eiffel Tower


On Monday morning, Anastassia and Daria's birthday, we went to the Eiffel Tower. Fortunately the sun was out today because it was very windy at the top.

Happy Birthday, Anastassia & Daria

Alexander III Bridge


After visiting Musee d'Orsay on Sunday afternoon to study the Impressionist paintings by artists like Monet, Renoir, Degas, and Cezanne, the group walked back along the Seine River. Pictured here in the background is the Alexander III Bridge, built to honor the Russian Emperor in the mid-19th century. On Sunday evening, we had delicious crepes for dinner in a local restaurant.
